Why this helps
Saying you will send something later can feel complete even though the follow-up is still pending.
- Captures your own stated follow-through commitments.
- Includes the recipient and promised item when available.
- Reduces mental load from holding future replies in mind.
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect Slack and Agent mail to Notis once in the portal.
- 2Create an automation through the portal or by asking Notis conversationally.
- 3Ask Notis to email you a reminder when your DM clearly promises a later reply or item, including only a stated timing.
- 4Choose the Slack direct message trigger and set a channel for run reports.
- 5Test with one real DM containing a promise to follow up.
Questions about this workflow
Can it tell which DM is mine?
The instruction should specify that the reminder applies to your own outgoing promise when that detail is available in the trigger context.
Does it send the promised reply?
No. It creates a reminder email so you can complete the follow-up yourself.
